HOA crash hitting Florida. 500% spike in liquidations.

- Опубліковано 9 вер 2024
- HOA costs Florida are skyrocketing, causing many home and condos owners to sell their properties. Pushing Florida into the beginning stages of a housing crash in 2024, where inventory of homes for sale has spiked.
Access data on Reventure App: www.reventure.app
The HOA costs are increasing because Florida Gov Ron Desantis signed a bill which mandated that all condo associations in the state have fully funded reserves by 2025. The result is huge increases in assessments for many homeowners.
This is also a nationwide problem. With HOA prevalence and costs increasing all across America. 45% of homeowners in Florida are in an HOA, while 40% in Colorado are, and 35% in California.
These skyrocketing HOA and insurance costs are intersecting with a big spike in mortgage rates over the last two years. Causing buyer demand to plummet in the Florida real estate market.

The more time I spend in Florida, the more amazed I am at the inventory levels.
Never in the last 7-8 years have we seen so many homes for sale. And now prices are starting to drop. Head to www.reventure.app to track the data in your ZIP code.
Start with inventory figures for free. And then upgrade to a premium plan to see how fundamentally overvalued prices are in your area, and the forecast for where they're heading in the next year.
@@ReventureConsulting it's because people used to move to Florida because it was cheap. Now it's a nightmare. Unless you are very wealthy and can be on the water, living in this hellhole doesn't make sense any longer.
@reventureconsulting
Can you look at the federal reserve intrest rate resestion chart from the fred charts.... please
Nic, why did you move to the Confederacy?
Are you a Confederate?
Florida is trash
@@priceandpride yeah in many ways God's judgment will come to Florida too. We had heat waves and fires before. California is not the only state that had fires I lived in Oregon when forest burned. The air was full of smoke in the Medford valley. 73
Back in the day, when I purchased my first home to live-in; that was Miami in the early 1990s, first mortgages with rates of 8 to 9% and 9% to 10% were typical. People will have to accept the possibility that we won't ever return to 3%. If sellers must sell, home prices will have to decline, and lower evaluations will follow. Pretty sure I'm not alone in my chain of thoughts.
If anything, it'll get worse. Very soon, affordable housing will no longer be affordable. So anything anyone want to do, I will advise they do it now because the prices today will look like dips tomorrow. Until the Fed clamps down even further, I think we're going to see hysteria due to rampant inflation. You can't halfway rip the band-aid off.
consider moving your money from the housing market to financial markets or gold due to high mortgage rates and tough guidelines. Home prices may need to drop significantly before things stabilize. Seeking advice from a financial advisor who understands the market could be helpful in making the right decisions.
I will be happy getting assistance and glad to get the help of one, but just how can one spot a reputable one?
Carol Vivian Constable is the licensed fiduciary I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment..
She appears to be well-educated and well-read. I ran a Google search for her name and came across her website; thank you for sharing.
I’m in Ohio and the housing market here over the last 7-8 years is unlike anything I’ve ever seen. Homes that were bought for $130K in 2015 are now being sold for $590k. I’m talking about tiny, disgusting, poorly built 950 square foot shit boxes in quiet mediocre neighbourhoods. Then you’ve got Better, average sized homes in nicer neighbourhoods that were $300K+ 10 years ago selling for $750k+ now. Wild times.
Home prices will come down eventually, but for now; get your money (as much as you can) out of the housing market and get into the financial markets or gold. The new mortgage rates are crazy, add to that the recession and the fact that mortgage guidelines are getting more difficult. Home prices will need to fall by a minimum of 40% (more like 50%) before the market normalizes.If you are in cross roads or need sincere advise on the best moves to take now its best you seek an independent advisor who knows about the financial markets.
Impressive can you share more info?
Certainly, there are a handful of experts in the field. I've experimented with a few over the past years, but I've stuck with ‘’Tracy Annette Webb” for about five years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive.She’s quite known in her field, look-her up.
Thanks a lot for this suggestion. I needed this myself, I looked her up, and I have sent her an email. I hope she gets back to me soon.
@@Nernst96 your advisor looks good
My wife and I sold our house in Florida to move to Texas. I invested some of the money from the sale in the stock market. The portfolio is up 300k this quarter. I guess she knows the investment is making profit, but we've never really spoken openly about it. It's one of the best choices I made.
Wow, that's a good ROI. You trade or you have been holding all this while?
Oh no, I don't really trade. Too complex and random for me. I work with a financial advisor.
That's interesting . I've recently been exploring the option of working with an FA too. Any chance you could recommend who you work with?
It's not very difficult to find. Marissa Lynn Babula is the licensed advisor I use. Just research the name. You’ll find necessary details to work with to set up an appointment.
Thanks a lot for the recommendation. I'll send her an email and I hope I'm able to connect with her.
I think it's time to make it more appealing for potential buyers. Real estate can be quite the rollercoaster! the stress and uncertainty are getting to me. I think I'll cut rents to attract potential buyers and exit the market, but i'm at crossroads if to allocate the entire liquidity value to my stock portfolio?
"Overall, buyers hold a lot of the cards right now, and sellers are having to give out more concessions to close a deal." All the best, buying on sale is actually one of the best ways to invest in stocks, and advisors are ideally suited for such task
Until the Fed clamps down even further I think we're going to see hysteria due to rampant inflation. If you are in cross roads or need sincere advise on the best moves to take now with financial markets will be best you seek a fin-professional with fiduciary responsibilities who knows about mortgage-backed securities for proper guidance.
I've been looking to switch to an advisor for a while now. Any help pointing me to who your advisor is?
Annette Marie Holt is the coach that guides me, you probably might have come across her before I found her through a Newsweek report. She's quite known in her field, look-her up.
I just googled her now and I'm really impressed with her credentials. I reached out to her since I need all the assistance I can get.
Because so many people overpaid for homes even while loan rates were low, I believe there will be a housing catastrophe because these people are in debt. If housing costs continue to drop and, for whatever reason, they can no longer afford the property and it goes into foreclosure, they have no equity since, even if they try to sell, they will not make any money. I believe that many individuals will experience this, especially given the impending mass layoffs and rapidly rising living expenses.
Considering the present situation, diversifying by shifting investments from real estate to financial markets or gold is recommended, despite potential future home price drops. Given prevailing mortgage rates and economic uncertainty, this move is prudent, particularly due to stricter mortgage regulations. Seeking advice from a knowledgeable independent financial advisor is advisable for those seeking guidance.
You're correct! With the help of an investment coach, I was able to diversify my 450K portfolio across markets and produce slightly more than $830K in net profit from high dividend yield equities, ETFs, and bonds.
Would you mind providing details on the advisor who helped you?
Aileen Gertrude Tippy’’ is her name. She is regarded as a genius in her area and works for Empower Financial Services. She’s quite known in her field, look-her up.
This reference seems valid.. Just looked up her full name on my browser and found her webpage without sweat, over 15 years of experience is certainly striking! very much appreciate this.
i would never buy a house with an HOA. absolutely never.
From my analysis, people overpaid for homes even while loan rates were low, I believe there will be a housing catastrophe because these people are in debt. If housing costs continue to drop and, for whatever reason, they can no longer afford the property and it goes into foreclosure, they have no equity since, even if they try to sell, they will not make any money. I believe that many individuals will experience this, especially given the impending mass layoffs and rapidly rising living expenses.
I advise you to invest in stocks to balance out your real estate, Even the worst recessions offer wonderful buying opportunities in the markets if you're cautious. Volatility can also result in excellent short-term buy and sell opportunities. This is not financial advice, but buy now because cash is definitely not king right now!
Anticipate rising home prices due to inflation, potential economic fluctuations, and Federal Reserve actions, emphasizing the need for expert financial advice amid uncertainties.
How can I participate in this? I sincerely aspire to establish a secure financial future and am eager to participate. Who is the driving force behind your success?
Sharon Marissa Wolfe is the licensed advisor I use. Just search the name. You’d find necessary details to work with to set up an appointment.
I greatly appreciate it. I'm fortunate to have come upon your message because investing greatly fascinates me. I'll look her up and send her a message. You've truly motivated me. Thanks.
In the USA, individuals living in cars due to partial homelessness result from a complex interplay of factors. High housing costs relative to income, stagnant wages, and income inequality drive this issue. Job loss, weak social support, medical expenses, evictions, and lack of affordable housing also contribute, while systemic problems and inadequate policies further perpetuate the phenomenon.

I agree, that's the more reason I prefer my day to day investment decisions being guided by an advisor, seeing that their entire skillset is built around going long and short at the same time both employing risk for its asymmetrical upside and laying off risk as a hedge against the inevitable downward turns, coupled with the exclusive information/analysis they have, it's near impossible to not out-perform, been using my advisor for over 2years+ and I've netted over 2.8million.
I appreciate the implementation of ideas and strategies that result to unmeasurable progress. Being heavily liquid, I'd rather not reinvent the wheel, thus the search for a reputable advisor, mind sharing info of this person guiding you please?
Finding financial advisors like “Jessica Lee Horst” who can assist you shape your portfolio would be a very creative option. There will be difficult times ahead, and prudent personal money management will be essential to navigating them.
I greatly appreciate it. I'm fortunate to have come upon your message because investing greatly fascinates me. I'll look her up and send her a message. You've truly motivated me. God's blessings on you.
Despite the fact that I invest, I am frustrated by my incapacity to assess each company's performance and determine whether or not this is the best time to buy stocks. Inflation is depleting my monetary reserves. I need reliable market trajectory data at this point, but I'm not sure what to do.
Despite my conviction in your direction, my recent stock purchases, and the fact that I am an AMC shareholder, I have not been able to amass anything. I had been in debt for far too long before the collapse. What are the steps required in investing?
I completely agree, which is why I think it's important to delegate decision-making responsibility to an investment coach. Underperformance is essentially unimaginable given their specialized experience and education, as well as the fact that each of their skills is focused on harnessing risk for its asymmetrical potential and controlling it as a buffer against certain unfavorable events. Working with an investment coach for over two years, I've made over $1.5 million.
How does one go about finding a capable FA? I appreciate the notion of using their services, but it's too bad that stock market meltdowns have recently become commonplace.
'Annette Christine Conte is the licensed coach I use. Just research the name. You'd find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment.

Recessions are part of the economic cycle, all you can do is make sure you're prepared and plan accordingly. I graduated into a recession (2009). My 1st job after college was aerial acrobat on cruise ships. Today I'm a VP at a global company, own 3 rental properties, invest in stocks and biz, built my own business, and have my net worth increase by $500k in the last 4 years.
Investing without proper guidance can lead to mistakes and losses. I've learned this from my own experience.If you're new to investing or don't have much time, it's best to get advice from an expert.
You are right! I've diversified my portfolio across various markets with the aid of a financial adviser, I have been able to generate a little bit above $450k in net profit across high dividend yield stocks, ETF and bonds.
Glad to have stumbled on this comment, Please who is the consultant that assist you and if you don't mind, how do I get in touch with them?
Svetlana Sarkisian Chowdhury a highly respected figure in her field. I suggest delving deeper into her credentials, as she possesses extensive experience and serves as a valuable resource for individuals seeking guidance in navigating the financial market.

I bought into an HOA once. I will NEVER do that again. To those who say, serve on the board: I did. I never knew my neighbors were so petty. The entire experience was a nightmare. Never again.
You want to know petty? I live in a gated community and one time some delivery person drove through the open gate, and passed the guard. Someone in here chased him down and yelled at him for just driving in. 🥺
@@CroisMoidisgusting behavior

I purchased a house in a HOA once, NEVER AGAIN.
Exactly
Exactly @Joe-sh2tf, controlling, miserable ppl run the HOA, they've never had ANY power and now at the HOA with the modicum they do have they are insane. One of our crazy's here checks our garbage bags!
That's ridiculous....whose going to manage the property?
@@Ace-qy5vz You are probably the HOA member out there measuring grass.
Yup lol@@Mittens_Gaming
We sold in 2021 and after 21 years we still do not know what the HOA did with our money.
HOA crash hitting Florida is now the big new . It's causing quite a stir, right? Some folks are saying America needs to get rid of HOAs altogether. What's your take on this situation?
Investing in real estate and stocks can indeed be a smart move, especially when you have a solid trading plan in place to navigate through both the good and challenging days. It's all about having a strategy that can help you capitalize on the profitable opportunities that come your way.
It's essential to be wary of purchasing a property in an HOA. Numerous new homeowners in Florida are discovering themselves in HOAs, which can lead to increased debt and complications. Only individuals with significant experience, especially those who survived the 2008 financial crisis, can effectively navigate these uncertain times and make informed decisions in the real estate market.
I've been considering consulting with experts for guidance, especially after learning about the HOA situation. I feel like I could really use some direction at this point, but I'm not sure if their services would genuinely help solve the issue.
Desiree Ruth Hoffman, my CFA, is well-respected in her field. I suggest delving deeper into her qualifications. With her extensive experience, she serves as an invaluable asset for those seeking guidance in the financial market.
Thanks for the advice. I have to admit, Desiree seems really knowledgeable. I heard about her and decided to check out her online page. After going through her resume, I was really impressed. I reached out to her, and I've scheduled a session.
A crash and bullish market provides equal high-yield potential, it's all about information and strategy application, I've seen folks make huge 7figure profit in a crashing market and pull it off much easily in a bull market Unequivocally the crash/recession is getting somebody somewhere rich.
On occasion you can beat the market with blind luck, but I wouldn't depend on it. Having a science background there is a saying, 'Luck favors the informed', I've found it to be true, allowed me in great part to retire early
No doubt, having the right plan is invaluable, my portfolio is well-matched for every season of the market and recently hit 100% rise from early last year. I and my CFP are working on a 7 figure ballpark goal, tho this could take till Q3 2024.
Impressive! How can I contact this advisor? My portfolio has underperformed, and I need guidance.

Thank you for this tip. It was easy to find your coach. Did my due diligence on her before scheduling a phone call with her. She seems proficient considering her resume.
You can't avoid an HOA in a condo building. Someone has to take charge. The HOAs for single family homes are ridiculous and unnecessary.
You can avoid an HOA in a condo building...Don't buy an apartment...problem solved.
HOA’s are meant to keep the properties values up and maintain a certain look, bylaws so you can sell at top dollar. Here in Florida, let me tell you HOA can give you some peace with your neighbors. You can be without an HOA but then your neighbor parks his trailer, 5 cars in front of his front lawn, work on his car engine in the middle of the night, party all night long with complete disregard of his neighbors. Yes, it happens and there is nothing you can do about it. Problem is the builders HOA’s are thiefs and give you back the minimum if you don’t keep them in check. Owners need to go to the meetings and ask for the financials and ask a lot of questions. Most people just forget and then when things get bad they are mad. Ask and verify.
@@Portodan3482 Thing is I couldn't care less about particular look (properly maintaining the building and yard is all that's needed--places where all the houses look pretty much the same are only various levels of creepy to me depending on how "perfect" they are) or people having lots of cars parked (as long as they're not hogging the whole of the street parking around them and all vehicles are in good condition).
But .... Car engine work at night? Parties all night long? I have to ask ... where are the local quiet hour laws in FL??? That's something that here I'd call police about, not complain to the HOA over. IDK but how are HOAs enforcing something like that better?
(Agree with giving their financials/laws a jaundiced eye, tho. Get disclosures on those and read them carefully, and if anything looks bad or annoying, just don't even buy there. The problem is how many places have an HOA in a given area sometimes .... you may have to do a LOT of reading to find a house that has appeal beyond the actual house.)
Not unnecessary if you want a neighborhood pool, tennis courts, etc. instead of paying to put one in yourself, or if you want a gated neighborhood. Contrary to the masses here, not all HOAs are tyrannical wanting to make sure your lawn is a certain color of green.
@@Portodan3482HOAs reduce home values because most people don't want to be in an HOA but are forced to of they want to live in a newer home.
Noise pollution is a local law issue.
I'd love to have a neighbor that works on cars. You are very discriminatory in other people's hobbies. What if your HOA banned landscaping or gardening?
Did it twice, bought in a HOA…both times, in Florida. F that…..Never again.

More and more people are staying away from houses with HOA. Include me in the 70% who hate HOA.
HOAs are yet another gift from American Boomers.
Never HOA. Will live in a shack on a dirt lot rather than a HOA.
There will be many foreclosures for Florida retirees in the coming years. The irony is the old saying about a son living in his mom's basement cause he doesn't have his financial life to gether. In the next couple years mom will have her house or condo foreclosed on and she will go back somewhere up north and live in her son's basement.
@@roadwayfunding Oddly, this seems odd to us in North America. Most of the rest of the world, they just assume that the parents eventually move back in with their children rather than going to some retirement home to rot away.

The continuously changing economic conditions in our society have made it necessary for people to find additional sources of income, thus I am looking at the stock market to fuel my retirement goal of $3m, my only concern is the recent market crash.
Every crash/collapse brings with it an equivalent market chance if you are early informed and equipped, I've seen folks amass wealth amid economy crisis, and even pull it off easily in favorable conditions. That should be the least of your concern. Also explore the option of working with a CFA to reduce greatly your chances of loss.
You're right, I and a few Neighbors in Bel Air Area work with an Investment Adviser who prefers we DCA across other prospective sectors instead of a lump sum purchase. As a result, my portfolio has recorded significant improvement even during the most unfavorable market season.
I'm intrigued by this. I've searched for investment advisers online but it's kind of hard to get in touch with one. Okay if I ask you for a recommendation??

Wow, a 500% spike in HOA liquidations? Looks like the Florida real estate market is going to be on a rollercoaster ride! I’ve been sitting on my $23k emergency fund, itching to start investing, but with this kind of chaos, where’s the headstart? Maybe I should start looking at foreclosure auctions, but who knows if that’s a good idea now. Anyone else feeling like they’re standing on the edge of a cliff with their money?
Haha, you’re not alone! The HOA crash is wild, but hey, chaos breeds opportunity, right? Though, diving into foreclosures might be a bit risky without a solid plan. Honestly, before jumping into anything, you might want to chat with an investment advisor. They could help you navigate these choppy waters and make sure that $23k doesn’t go up in smoke!
Totally agree with you both-this market is insane! I’ve been thinking about finding an investment advisor myself, but I’m not sure where to start. I don’t want to just Google someone random, but I also don’t want to sit on the sidelines forever. Any tips on how to find someone reliable?

Great video. I have a quick question. I am an aspiring trader, I am looking study some traders and earn off their expertise rather than investing myself and lose money emotionally. Whats your take on copy trading? Do people really make money? Just looking for some reassurance..
Focus on long term investments in property, stocks, and bonds. Avoid copying, daytrading and 'chart astrology'. Diversify across different geographies, industries, and value chain stages - to reduce your risk. You can do this with ETFs, or by selecting different stocks yourself. This is the best way to invest for more than 90% of people

Infomercial fraud alert this is a scam if you need financial advice find a person in your own area
Why would anyone ever pay hand over fist for a house only to give someone else authority over their investment? Price point dictates upkeep. HOA’s are a scam.
That's true in new neighborhoods, but much less true in old ones. Nothing in my neighborhood is under $450k, but it was all built in the 70s. Looks like shit because people who bought 10+ years ago at a much lower price point don't maintain their houses.
@@OtisFlint That's because the PTB 'engineered' an 'unsustainable' equation, and now the majority can no longer even afford the payments, taxes and insurance... let alone maintenance!

High net worth people are also again FLEEING the US... let alone California, NY, etc. Nick, is right... HOAs are not going to remain on the USP list, when 80% hated them, already!

I put a contract on a house in Atlanta and then they sent me the rules for the HOA and it was unbelievable. You couldn't have colored curtains inside your house. They told you what color mulch you had to use in your yard and what type of plants you could plant in your yard and what color Christmas lights you could have and you couldn't have blow up decorations at Christmas. I passed.
I'm all for banning those stupid blowup decorations.
HOA: You pay them to trouble you. There's a word for that...bondage, weirdo, kinky stuff.
they can’t dictate what color curtains you hang inside your house unless those curtains can be seen from outside. So you will have to put up what ever color drapes in front/behind it so it so the color couldn’t be viewed from the curb. I had to go through that crap and opted for blinds behind the curtains. Massive PIA.

@@plektosgaming I'm pretty sure it happened in Vegas now that you mention it. I haven't tried to Google it; reading it the first time was bad enough..
I’m renting in Dallas. They harass me constantly about tiny brown patches in the grass, when I water 3 x weekly. The grass they are supposed to maintain has brown patches too. Last year I took pictures of their brown patches and asked them how they could hold me to a higher standard than they were willing to maintain. They stopped bothering me. They act like everyone here works for them. People panic trying to fix their lawns in the boiling heat of summer.
isn't fungus that you may have on grass? that's causing for over watering and if somebody else mows your lawn that fungus spreads out everywhere on the wheels
The state of Texas has laws that override them concerning native plants. lol. Just plant native plants and say bye-bye to that boring lawn.
@@verdeyoro The landlord had to put sod in this spring. The sprinkler guy said to water three times a week. Even though the city says twice a week. Do you know what to do?
screw hoa
@@CroisMoi get some pest control flags and date them for those days you're watering in the yard you should not be fined as long you keep that flag on the grass, new planted grass has to be water 💦 30 days in a row until it' root in the ground but it needs to be treated with fungicide, insecticide and potash to see it grow it healthy
Nothing like buying a house and having to pay rent on top of it.
Exactly! And why would anyone agree to that! People are giving their freedoms away while being told what to do and how to do it! Its ridiculous! People need to stand up against all shady business practices.
You pay city taxes to live in the city and they are enough!
110% of ownership responsibility in exchange for about 75% of ownership privileges. Sounds like a real bargain.
like property tax
It started so you wouldn't have the rundown house on the block with boats and rusted cars on the lawn that nobody could do anything about and would bring down your value
@@ronaldkonkoma4356 It’s now laying the foundation for social credit scoring. First, get everyone tattling on their neighbors. Next, replace cash with CBDCs. Install 24/7 surveillance including INSIDE the living space. Insist that it’s all for the people’s own good. The value of the house only a handful of them will actually end up as owners of. Where will the US be in five years time?
As a forty year resident of S Florida, I can say it’s almost impossible to purchase a new property without being in an HOA. In fact, most homes built within the past thirty years also fall into that category. Unfortunately, a lot of owners are slobs and don’t care to keep their houses looking nice. That’s why an HOA is necessary. I’m from the UK and had never heard of an HOA until I moved here. I’m fortunate that my HOA fee is only $66 a month.
Not true were are you getting your information from?
I live on South Beach. We always collected Reserves in our Maintenance fees. We have had reserves since the building went condo. We had a upstanding management company that did what they should have. The problem comes from horrible
Condo management companies, that keep HOA's low so the the units sell,
There are some very well managed Hoa's I agree. The citizens where you live would never tolerate what they do with middle to lower class homes or condos. They know those owners don't have the money to take the Hoa to court if they screw things up. Well you know what I mean.
Here’s how I shop for homes: The instant I see an HOA fee I immediately go to the next home. Would never ever pay such a nonsensical expense. If everybody else would do the same you’d see HOA fees gone overnight.
How does the HOA pool get maintained, if no one pays for the maintenance of it?
Facts
Why have an HOA pool when you cam have your own
@@nashonabo821 because some cities require a certain size lot to have your own pool. So you have one large pool for the HOA. A lot easier and cheaper than maintaining your own.
@@rolback5055 I grew up in a neighborhood without a pool. No need for a pool. Why assume you need an HOA, just to have a pool? If there is some need for a community pool, the users should pay for its upkeep.
No way to avoid an HOA in a condo but for a detached single family? F-NO!
It's nigh impossible to find a nice Florida neighborhood w/o an HOA. Everyone wants their community pool, amenity center, and petty privileges (ie forcing their neighbors to keep up with the Joneses).
Never buy a home with an HOA.
I learned my lesson
ME TOO
I almost made an offer on a condo in Winter Haven, but when I asked to see the HOA rules, we were told we had to buy it before we could see the rules! What? Nope.
@@davidclaycomb5496I think that is against the law in Florida, always ask for minutes from the meeting also
@@davidclaycomb5496 they probably didn't want you to see the $300k special assessment happening in the future or that the hoa bill was going to triple
I've lived in an HOA home for 3 years now. They are brilliant. Fees don't change and services are great. When I need something done its done within 48 hours. Not all HOAs are bad.
Hallelujah!!! I’m favored and blessed with $60,000 every week! Now I can afford anything and also support the work of God and the church.
Oh really? Tell me more!,how do you make so much monthly? I’m interested.
This is what Ana Graciela Blackwelder does, she has changed my life.
After raising up to 60k trading with her, I bought a new house and car here in the US and also paid for my son’s (Oscar) surgery. Glory to God.shalom.

Absolutely! I have heard stories of people who started with little or no knowledge but managed to emerge victorious thanks to Ana Graciela Blackwelder.
NEVER buy a home in a HOA ❌
Hate HOA !!!!!!!!!!!
Never buy anything with restrictions!
So you are OK with your neighbors having goats and chickens next to your yard and rusty old cars up on jacks in the driveway?
How much do you want other people all up in your business? If that's worth it to you just so you can be all up in other people's business, well, you deserve an HOA.
Karen is always the HOA President
@@bt_explorer The residents can vote out "Karens".
I've been an HOA officer. We need to spend money on stuff like trash collection anyway; when we buy in bulk, we save money. Keeping up the pool means you can have a pool. HOAs often provide value.
Home prices need to crash, not just drop.
I agree. What was 200k just 4 years ago, should only be worth 230k tops. Not 4-5-6-7-8-900k. It's ridiculous. Homes lennar is building now, just back in 2019, you could snatch up for a little over 200k. Those same homes they are building are going for minimum 600k.
They about to go up higher with Fed cutting interest rate 😂
@@Yui789esss definitely gonelna be interesting. I personally know people in the new home builders sector like lennar who are in panic mode because they aren't selling houses. 😂
@@Yui789esss Well like the video poster said, the rates may not increase buying demand.
@@Mint_Mushroom2976 I been watching Nick since 2021, he has pretty much been wrong on everything 😂
I’m in a HOA. They suck. Next time we hope to find a home without a HOA.
Alternative is loud neighbors. 50 cars parked yard. Pink colored houses. Lol
@@goptions4678 well in my neighborhood there’s multiple houses that have a packed driveway of cars or cars parked on the side of the street. Some are loud as hell and blast music. But HOA wants to bug me about have a certain amount of plants in my yard. They enforce what they want when they want. To top it off they can foreclose on houses so yeah I’ll take a pink house next door than what we have now.
Never buy with a hoa controlling you and your home /condo. You will in the end be sorry. 😢
We were catching up on our reserves years before the law and were making good progress. The problem that raised our fees so high was 1 year we had our insurance go up 60%. The very next year it went up 100%. So our problem is the INSURANCE RATES.
HOA run well can be a godsend especially when they are reasonable and they maintain the community
I wouldn’t buy an overpriced house, even if the interest rate went to zero! Against my principles to knowingly get ripped off.
Yep, I buy as though I'm paying cash.
I'm not handing someone $100k Extra for the privilege of buying a house they don't want.
I currently have an HOA and they are so useless. It's a waste of money.
As soon as things look better I will sale.
Clearwater....ground zero for Scientology
Xemu
NO! It’s Gilman Hot Springs, California. It’s true, you can look it up.
The cult of Hollywood! Those stars that are into it are some of the creepiest ones around too
Even an HOA can’t help with the Scientology thing 😂
So in Clearwater they have HOA and Scientology reaching out to their pockets.
I am so glad that HOA's aren't a thing in Europe. Hooray!
Here is another reason for liquidation. Elevators. There are no spare parts for older elevators. When they break, they stay broken for a very long time. This leads to lawsuits from people who are unable to safely evacuate in case of a fire. Sell anything more than three stories up.
The big problem is in Vegas almost every neighborhood being built has a HOA it's almost impossible to buy a home without one
What made you think it was a good idea ?
@@snapseven2323 I’m not saying it’s good idea, did you read my comment?
@@snapseven2323huh
Dont live in Vegas ...Duh
and home prices there are still 200% higher than they were 4 years ago.
There is a serious problem with HOA. They should not have so much rights than the homeowner.

I just sold my Florida home in an HOA, NEVER AGAIN!
congrats PianoMatronNeeNee ! will you stay in Florida? gotta to have a place where you can make music.......
@@bernie57 Music is always on my mind Bernie lol Yep, still staying but moving an hour north, away from the city. Gonna rent for now.
@@PianoMatronNeeNee makes sense to rent at first, especially given the declining real estate markets in Florida, which became unbelievably inflated during the pandemic and the balloon needs to deflate somewhat. Florida prices doubled since 2018 in the desirable coastal areas and have a lot of room to drop........good luck with your move and keep making beautiful music!
Unfortunately, many want to run out of Florida but are trapped in an extremely difficult situation, especially those who have purchased in the last 4 years due to having fallen into the trap of paying ridiculous amounts unnecessarily.
So if the HOA maintains roads and the utility companies handle infrastructure, why do you need property tax to the extent non hoa communities have it? Wouldn’t it stand to reason that rate should be lower?
First wave of suburbs really went off in the 50s and 30 or 40 years layer towns couldn't afford the maintenance so they mandated the HOAs which would provide new property taxes but not new maintenance obligations. Now is 30 or 40 years after the HOAs started up and we are back to whose going to pay for the infrastructure again. So now the HOA fees are going to explode or end up declaring bankruptcy.
Suburban sprawl has too much infrastructure to maintain and not people and businesses to pay for it.
I live in a HOA, never again. They are another layer of government that is harder to deal with that the actual town itself. You have to ask permission for everything, fill out forms just right, submit it just right or they reject it for the littles thing. A lot of people just do what they want now and do not tell them because its such a pain to do even minor things that should not require asking permission, like changing plants, or paining the house the same color as it already is, and or minor things. Besides they have a two tiered system of enforcement, houses have garbage in front of them for months and nothing happens, I leave a bush untrimmed and get a letter. Florida just passed a new law that limits the power of HOAs, it was cut down heavily do to the influence of special interest groups, that is a sin, that means HOAs are big money for some people, especially law firms who pray on homeowners.
I’m not sure what their endgame is. Do they want it so that no one can even walk through the neighborhood? Is that what they want?
Florida has truly gone down the pipes in the past 15-20 years, but honestly, so has America for the most part.
You got that right. There is no where to run
America is the Florida of Earth.
@@Foo3thoo yeah, that really is a good metaphor.
It’s because it costs NOTHING to destroy things, but to take care of them costs money. And I am sorry, but every Republican I know is big on showing off THEIR money but welching on community debts or issues. I lived in Florida and saw exactly how much developers care about what they leave there. They don’t care.
@@suzannecoe4347 And county commissions and city councils throughout the state care more about future residents than current ones.
Nobody is going to pay these fees and the associations will go under. Plain and simple.
Already starting. People just don't have the money to pay HOA fees. HOA's now are just another tool to make you become homeless. HOA's did have a purpose to maintain the appearance of the neighborhood for every ones advantage. That is not the case anymore. HOA homes will eventually become worthless.
I think what goes unsaid is that HOA boards are governed by residents of the community and are unpaid. Everyone wants to complain about how bad they are but no one wants to step up and make a change. I've volunteered on 2 HOAs and it is a nightmare but I volunteered because everyone wanted to complain but no one wanted to find solutions.
Nobody likes hoas until their neighbor has a boat in their grass and their lawn is 3 feet tall. Especially when you are hearing gunshots.
In all seriousness, deed restriction is contract law.
HOA's suck. I do get the need in an apartment but not at all in a regular house. Horrible. I will avoid it. Thank you.
An apartment is rented, and a condo is owned by the occupant. Apartment complexes don't charge HOA fees.
@@jeffreybaier5312 No they just raise the rent 100% every year.
@@youaregoingtolovethis especially in Atlanta, I want out of here.
@@jeffreybaier5312 Not really, There are built to rent communities of houses now , WITH HOA. It shouldn't be.
You will do as you are told. Who will do the telling? It might be the neighbors, but it might NOT even be someone you ever see, ffs. Buyer beware!!
My HOA in Florida was a nightmare. Never again.
Haven't moved in an HOA neighborhood and don't plan to ever. There's so much more peace of mind living in a home and not having to worry about all those HOA horror stories that are out there. The money you would spend on an HOA can easily be applied to personally hiring all the needs that they so claim to already provide.
If you are buying a house for freedom and security without having and HOA, don't you think your neighbors are also? If they want to pain their house pink or park their boat that's their choice and yours if you chose to do so also.
My dad's house was in an HOA here in California. His dues were $135.........a year and had been at that level for a couple of decades. It was a very large, very old, and properly run HOA and it was very low key.
So basically when you live in an hoa it’s like being treated like you’re in kindergarten and living inside a funeral parlor. I feel bad for all you people that have your freedoms stolen from you in your own homes.
Try living in an area with no HOA, they steal your TV and rims off your car lmao
The sky’s always fallin..
Read your covenants and restrictions before you buy. The problem is most people don't and then complain because the rules that made the neighborhood attractive to you are enforced
"Attractive"? White, bland, gross. Try using more accurate terms.
@@sdsbc-z2lyou are confusing demographics with HOAs
home prices need to correct by 80% to be realistically valued
More like 20 to 30% at best at least nationwide . Maybe Florida something like at least 50% depending on locale
If prices drop 80% it would be devastating for the whole country.
@@TheRealEdStonerok chicken little
@@tobyk5149 if that comment was meant for me you’re not thinking about the situation as a whole.
Time to look outside of the USA to live.
They kicked the can down the road. Such pathetic business practices.
Just like the government
Keep in mind that the new law is requiring fully funded reserves by the end of the year. This is creating an opportunity for bargain hunters, not all news is bad if you read carefully
Generally speaking, new communities with homeowners associations are often structured so that the builder has the right and the obligation to hold the majority of the board-member positions, also referred to as the declarant positions.
Never ever buy a condo without looking at the association financial statements. And always ask about pending or current special assessments.
They collected more than enough, problem is it went into peoples pockets & not the reserve fund or repairs.
@@TheCatholicGirl no they did not. Most of the owners voted to keep the monthly dues low and did not want to pay more monthly dues to fund the reserves.
@@janefairall579 You are wrong & can’t do math. Those people in Champlain Towers were paying like $1,000/month. That was plenty for maintenance to avoid collapse. People stole the dues. That is far more common that “they didn’t collect enough”. What a stupid, uneducated thing to say.
Exactly
@@janefairall579 No they did Not!
Yep. I moved in an HOA condo and 1 year later my fees doubled because their reserves were underfunded.
Lesson learned is the always look at the community financials to make sure the reserves are fully funded before buying. If not then reduce the sale price or walk away.
This makes getting your contract reviewed as well as the bylaws and budgets/reserves and ask questions BEFORE buying into one.
If you buy a relatively new home in Orange County CA you don't really have a choice; all developments are HOA bc they are either condos or master planned communities. I don't have a problem personally, as our HOA maintains common areas and upkeep on the parks, playground, pool, tennis courts, splash pad, etc. All for about $100/month. The upkeep on several large trees on the slope behind our house is probably worth the HOA cost alone. Our tract is 26 years old but all the houses on our street look great.
Condo 55+ community Evergreen, MT. 47% of ALL units are For SALE, NOT selling at $375k a large percentage of owners underwater they bought 2022 at $400+k to $529+k. HOA board checks our TRASH. OVER 542 cameras 144-unit development. Owner/developer has not sold one unit for 3 months now b/c he's OLD and delusional pricing units at $489k $550k 2br/2ba 1000 sqft. CRAZY receptionist involved owner and HOA president b/c a tenant did not say hello to her in the mailroom. HOA controlling, MISERABLE people!
That’s a nightmare. People need to just walk away.
Wow. Full nazi form. Scary
freedom goes both ways. You have to be okay with people boats, RV, front yard vegetable garden, and pink houses. Because your neighbor also tolerate your uber ugly teal house.
That's freedom. No way I ever want to live in a HOA
In my part of the country, there will be 10 cars parked outside your house if you don’t live in an HOA 😂
If it's public, you have no rights to complaint who parks there. But i do get your sentiment. There is always a trade off. Personally, people can do whatever they want as long as they dont touch other people' s property. I dont want HOA to tell how I live my life or what i should do to my property.@@Yui789esss
@Yui789esss sounds like dense urban centers. Taiwan is the same way. Too few parking spots and too many people. Most suburbia with 50' frontage. You can park 2 cars in the driveway, and 2 more car on the street per house :D
Agreed, but I don't understand why anyone would be upset by someone with a boat or RV in their driveway. I don't have either of them, but if someone wants that stuff, I'm fine with it. I don't want to take anyone's freedom, and I want to remain free myself.
Why would you even buy a house with an HOA. That is like buying a car and having to ask your neighbor if you can put new wheel on it, or what type of gas you are required to put in it. It's crazy. Why would anyone want that headache. If I want to paint my house pink. I will paint my house pink.
Because you don't want to watch your neighborhood regress into garbage over time.
@@OtisFlint i get that part of it. But i don't think its worth the cost... just buy in a decent area.
The HOA also manages the neighborhood common areas such as the pool area or entrance and common area landscaping
No pink houses is exactly the reason I want to have an HOA
Actually, it would be to force everyone on the roads to not drive rusted crab boxes, or maintain cars clean and not muddy to not disturb my sight.
Even with rates going down, rates are still super high. Also, the 37 % increase from 2020 inventory people are not going to buy shit.
Note to self don’t buy anything with an HOA. I’m not interested in extras. Builders will be forced to drop HOA.
I once went to see a condo I was interested in buying. We went in and stepped on a piece of paper. It was a anti-HOA paper, warning the residents to vote against a 50% increase in the HOA. I didn't buy. But units in that area kept going on the market because of it. 1100 HOA. Ridiculous, the building looked horrible.
When the HOAs did not do the repairs years ago whose pocket did the money go into??😅😅😅😅😅
Very important topic, thanks!!
In addition to the home builders being responsible, it’s also important to be aware of companies nobody has ever heard of, like FirstService Residential.
These companies manage HOAs, but also work on the side of the developer, pressuring them in to forming an HOA, of course to their benefit.
Why would anyone ever pay a company to let them dictate what you can and can't do on your own property. This makes no sense to me.
I am so glad I got rid of my Miami Beach Condo years ago. I owned it for only 3 years and got $250K in my pocket from that deal.
If I waited for today to sell, OMG, I would have lost so much money.
When your a senior on a fixed income $100 per month *IS A BIG DEAL* in today's economy.
I hate my HOA.
Big time.
I once lived in an HOA, and it was not a bad one from my experience. However, I am a licensed Amaterur Radio Amateur. A license issued by the Federal Communications Commission and superceeds all local juristictions and organizations when it comes to putting up antennas. Nobody can deny a licensed operator from erecting the antenna of his choice within FAA regulations. I did not ask my HOA if I could put up an antenna. I told them I was going to do it. And provided the FCC regulation to back up my notice. Also, if you want to receive signals from the airwaves you have the same undeniable right to put up an antenna. Few know that, but it is a Federal regulation.
How many people do you reach?
My HOA is amazing! Without it, our neighborhood would fall into disrepair. We all pitch in to do a good job.
What about homeowners insurance. We are seeing massive % increases in premiums.
Hey there are over 1 million homes for sale published online. There are over 5 million shadow homes for sale but not published because it would bring the prices even lower. These those NOT include apartments, there many millions of condo for sale.
Office building are beyond horrible, so bad that a $330 million dollar building sold for $8 million this week - look up 135 West 50th Street in Midtown Manhattan. SOLD AT A 97% LOST! THIS IS A CLASS A BUILDING IN NYC- HIGHEST RATING AND SOLD AT A HUGE LOST
That's because we are living in the equivalent of western Rome....around 456 AD. Not quite 476 AD yet, but too close for comfort. The proverbial "barbarians" have already invaded; our currency has been devalued into worthlessness; our excuse for a military is stretched thin, loaded with man boob-sporting, soy-guzzling sissies and infiltrated with America-hating foreigners. ALL these things existed in Rome around the time of it's final decline. All we need now is a modern equivalent of Geiseric and it's curtains for Los Estados Unidos: 1776-2025.
We also see it in trailer parks. $450 a month rents have gone up to $850 locally in the last 18 months. It is any surprize that the parks now have 20% vacancies? What used to be a good option for retirees is now like these homes in Florida - just insane levels of greed at work and people fleeing in droves.
Wow can afford to buy them? $2000.00 a month is insane. HOA's are ridiculous.
More condominiums up for sale than houses .
Most non condo HOAs are now where near that. In my area in TX they are typically $600-800/yr
some, a very few, pay more then $8000 per month.

I love my SFH HOA!
Prices have doubled since I bought.
$900 a year and get a 55,000 gallon pool and manicured common grounds and trails.
Nothing for sale, best looking community and a waiting list of buyers.
I have been thinking how the HOAs really screwed this up for the homeowners and themselves for not doing the yearly maintenance.
People in Condos that now have expensive HOA with the new laws and regulations are pissed at DeSantis for making the HOA's get funded. Well, there was a good reason! If buildings skimp on inspections and don't have the money for repairs it can kill them when their buildings fail. It is an investment and you have to take care and maintain them. Not just live it until it falls apart.
Dude you also need to look at the skyrocketing lot rent prices for mobile/manufactured home parks! $850-$1000 a month!
Terrible!
The New World Order wants to eliminate any and all forms of 'affordable' living.
Yep. Trailer parks are just a lower class HOAs with even less rights for the people that have to live there, no matter where it is.
I am in Broward county Florida { W Fort Lauderdale } and I have 2600 sq ft home. HOA is
